Wolvey is a village and civil parish in the borough of Rugby, Warwickshire, England, set in pleasant countryside roughly midway between Rugby and Hinckley, close to the Leicestershire border.
Its roots reach back to medieval times and the village still shows a historic core of timber‑framed cottages and a parish church; life today blends traditional farming with a commuter element, local pubs, a busy village hall and regular community events, while lanes and footpaths make it popular with walkers exploring the surrounding border countryside.
